ABSTRACT

The traditional response to sexual violence crimes around the world is stronger punishment based on retributionism and correctionism, and strengthened post-management of control and quarantine. Through this, general prevention and special preventive effects pursued by the existing criminal justice system. Despite the seeming effects of such a policy that focuses on thorough control and isolation of sex offenders, the fears and anxieties of the sex offenders of the general public do not seem to diminish much. This phenomenon suggests that punishment, control, and quarantine-based approaches to sex offenders do not strengthen the safety of society, but rather only reinforce the fear of crime, and further strengthen the side effects such as increasing social unrest and breaking community. It is a criticism. In addition, the existing criminal justice policy focuses on the punishment and correction of sexual assault perpetrators, and the need for victims of sexual violence, the guarantee of rights based on them, and the recovery of damage and the healing of wounds are still considered to be neglected or secondary high. In the end, it is necessary to seek alternative measures for recovery of victims of sexual violence and social reintegration of offenders who can overcome the limitations of existing criminal justice system. In the case of foreign countries, programs and systems based on the restorative justice ideology, which has emerged as one of the innovative criminal policies since the mid-1970s, have been used for the restoration of the victims of sexual violence crimes, prevention of recidivism and social reintegration of offenders, And the effectiveness of programs and systems has been proven empirically. This study examines the characteristics and contents of the circles of support and accountability', known as effective restorative justice programs for sexual offenders, focusing on the social reintegration of sexual offenders through the active intervention of the community in the restorative justice program applied to sexual violence crime. and we would like to examine the applicability of restorative justice to sexual offenders.
